Summary: | Illusive crime: "Probably the most controversial of Woolley's films, because of an audio rape sequence with flashes of nudity that split critics and viewers (especially feminists) right down the middle--some saying it was exploitative, others saying it was essential to get the formalist message (that we are all voyeurs in the cinema, often viewing at the expense of women) across. ..." (container). Kniephofstrasse (1973): This is Woolley's "most austerely structuralist and painterly" film. "Based around a fixed camera single wide shot of a West Berlin townscape filmed at different times of day and night, at different speeds and in different weathers" (container). Drinnen und Draussen: "A film set in the front room of a Berlin commune with a large shop window leading to the street outside. The film uses an actor and an actress, a pianist (visible playing the film's incidental music in the room next door) and occasional people on the street" (container).
